Nothing is more important to us than your student’s success at the University of Arkansas. Students living on campus boast a 3.2 Grade Point Average (GPA). These students are also 89% more likely to attend the university for another year, according to university research. That is statistically ahead of the average off-campus student.
Housing contracts are available now. Returning student hall selection occurs prior to new students if your student contracts by Friday, March 2.
We have room for your student and invite you to encourage them to live on campus another year.
Popular Places
- The returning student priority deadline ensures first dibs on popular suite-living properties like Walton Hall, the Northwest Quad buildings and the Maples.
- Our central campus properties like Founders, Gregson, and Gibson also go quickly once room selection opens for freshman.
- Only returning students are allowed to live in the University-owned apartment complex, Duncan Avenue Apartments.
- You can explore all our residence halls on the University Housing website.
Convenience and Community
- By living on campus, your student has the convenience of not worrying about a daily commute.
- Multiple meal options exist at our dining facilities and on-campus restaurants, which means there is always a meal at hand when needed.
- Housing rates are charged to student accounts. There is only one bill for on-campus students. Financial aid and scholarships are seamlessly applied toward housing costs.
- But the greatest on-campus advantage is our vibrant, academic community. Your student is surrounded by staff dedicated to their success when living on campus.
